[Xpand] Newline style of output files [message #638980]

Hello,

can I somehow tell Xpand to generate the output files with Windows-style
newlines only? I have to generate some configuration files that are read
by another product, and that product expects Windows linebreaks. Even if I
use Xpand on a Windows box, it always seems to generate Unix-style linebreaks.

Thanks
Volker

Failure is not an option. It comes bundled with your Microsoft product.

Hello Volker,

Xpand takes the newlines a you put them into the Xpand file - so adding windows style CRLF there should solve the problem. Another possiblity is to write a custom postprocessor / beautifier that does that.
